My Poor Husband Is A Billionaire

When Ethan was taken to the police station, Janet contacted his lawyer, prompting him to come as soon as possible.
“Sir, the Lester family is suing you.”
As soon as he arrived at the police station, the lawyer handed the file to Ethan. ! Ethan looked through it and sneered coldly.
“I didn‘t expect them to take action so quickly.”
“Seth is the plaintiff. He‘s suing you on behalf of his brother under the charge of intentional injury. The hospital has provided the
prognosis, which points to Ritchie‘s paralysis as a result of falling down the stairs.” The lawyer systematically handed the
materials and photos to Ethan.
Ethan didn‘t even bother to go through them and tossed all the papers on the table. In an almost leisurely tone, he simply said,
“You know what to do.”
The lawyer understood immediately.
After gathering all the files, he bowed slightly and left to get to work In fact, a week ago, Ethan had called his lawyer to inform
him that he would receive a lawsuit sometime soon, so the lawyer was already prepared for this moment.
After he left, Ethan kept silent. In fact, he had been expecting all of this. A week ago, Ethan secretly asked his subordinate, Luis,
to take charge of a project and contact Ritchie.
Because the Larson Group was pulling some strings, the Lester Silk Fabric didn‘t receive any orders in the past month.
At the chance of getting a new project, Ritchie accepted it without hesitation. He and Luis were in frequent contact because of
this so called project and often shared meals to discuss the cooperation.
On the day of the accident, Ethan had instructed Luis to ask Ritchie out for dinner. Luis was good at getting people to drink, and
that was precisely what he did with Ritchie. After getting plastered, Ritchie decided to get a room in the hotel.
“Why not go home instead?” Luis put down his glass and squinted at Ritchie curiously.
“My brother said that Ethan‘s coming home to see Grandma today. If I go home, all hell will break loose. The less trouble, the
better.” As Ritchie rambled on drunkenly, he stood up to leave.
Luis smiled meaningfully.

“He‘s just a bastard child. Why are you so afraid of him? If you don‘t go back and teach him a lesson, he‘ll probably think that
you‘re a coward.” The drunken Ritchie couldn‘t stand such provocation. He kicked the chair nearby furiously and roared, “How
could I be afraid of a bastard like him?”
Then, he stormed off angrily.
Seeing that Ritchie had fallen right into his trap, Luis texted Ethan to say that Ritchie was on his way back home, As expected,
within half an hour, Ritchie stumbled into the Lester family villa, reeking of alcohol Ethan then said those words on purpose to
provoke Ritchie Goaded by the alcohol and his anger, Ritchie attempted to kill Ethan but was instead pushed down the stairs by
the latter.
After Seth filed the case against Ethan, his lawyer told him that this would be a tricky case to win. After all, there was surveillance
footage that proved that Ritchie was the one who started the fight
“Although Ritchie is indeed a reckless fool, he wouldn‘t do such a stupid thing. Besides, I warned him beforehand not to come
home because Ethan would be there. It just doesn‘t add up...” Seth‘s eyes flashed. He knew that this couldn‘t be a mere
coincidence. In his eyes, this seemned more like a setup The lawyer smiled bitterly.
“Even so, we don‘t have any evidence, and the fact remains that Ritchie tried to attack Ethan first. Don‘t worry. There are still a
few days before the trial. We‘ll try our best to build our case.” Seth doubted he would win, but he didn‘t want to give up so easily.
However, Ethan didn‘t leave any trail of clues. Seth couldn‘t find a single shred of evidence to prove that this so–called “accident”
was thought out.
At last, on the day of the trial, the jury arrived at a verdict that it was Ritchie who tried to attack Ethan with a sharp weapon, which
was life–threatening to Ethan.
Thus, in an act of self–defense, Ethan pushed Ritchie away, causing the latter to fall down the stairs. Ethan‘s countermeasures
didn‘t necessarily cross the line, and his actions were entirely justifiable. In a word, Ethan was announced to be not guilty.
“I‘m not convinced.” Seth stood up and talked back to the judge
“Then submit your request to the supreme court for a second trial.”
After saying that, the judge left the courtroom Outside the courtroom, Ethan happened to run into Seth. Still wearing his signature
gentle smile on his face, Seth approached Ethan and whispered in a low voice, “What a perfect plan! Don‘t think that I can‘t see
through your tricks, Ethan. Just wait and see.”

Ethan hadn‘t had much contact with Seth since he was a child, but he never had a good impression of him. He always felt that
Seth was a two–faced person.
“I don‘t know what you‘re talking about.”
After saying that, Ethan walked past him without looking back. Seth did as the judge said and lodged an appeal for a retrial.
However, the Supreme Court upheld the original verdict and denied his request. In the end, Ritchie was forced to spend the rest
of his life in a wheelchair, while Ethan got away with it scot–free.
